    Abstract: A process for producing a protein concentrate from soybean seed and a protein concentrate or isolate which may be obtained from said process. The process comprises the successive steps of:
    a) providing a press cake from soybean seeds, said soybean seed being at least partially dehulled before being pressed;
    b) washing said press cake by mixing it with a first acidic aqueous solution to obtain an aqueous-washed soybean seed meal, wherein said first acidic solution comprises more than 90% w/w of water;
    c) washing said aqueous-washed soybean seed meal by mixing it with a first alcohol solvent, to obtain a first alcohol-washed soybean seed meal, wherein said first alcohol solvent is a hydrous or a non-hydrous alcohol and has an alcohol concentration which is above 75% w/w; and
    d) separating said alcohol-washed soybean seed meal from said solvent to obtain said protein concentrate.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing a protein-rich lupin flour, said process comprising the successive steps of a) washing a lupin flour by mixing it with an acidic aqueous liquid, and adjusting the pH of the mixture to a pH ranging from 3.5 to 5.3, to obtain a aqueous-washed lupin flour; and b) washing said aqueous-washed lupin flour by mixing it with an alcohol at least one time, to obtain an alcohol-washed lupin flour. The invention further to a protein-rich lupin flour, wherein said protein-rich lupin flour comprises at least 45% DM w/w of proteins and at least 20% DM w/w of total fibres and may have a white or off white colour determined in the colour space CIELAB (1976) by a b* value of less than 18, preferably less than 17.4, preferably less than 15.0 and more preferably less than 12.0.
